"Something i liferent" is said to
apply in comparing "A Social Ses
sion" with the average farce comedy.
It is said to be different inasmuch as
there is a thread of a plot and a gen
eral consistency, a reason for every
thing that is done that obviates the
necessity for horse plav, and does
away with that straining for a laugh
effect so noticeable in the majority of
pinular farce comedies. The dialogue
is bright and funny, and the situa
tions and scenes so unusual that the
audience is kept continually con
vulsed with laughter, and the fun is
of a quality that does not require any
hard thinking to appreciate. The
play was written for laughing pur
poses only, and cn be aptly and cor
rectly termed a laughing success.

January for Wraps
This month will be a good one in
which to buy wraps. One reason is,
that there will yet be considerable
time in which to use it, another rea-
eon, that we do not wish to carry a
single garment over until next season,
consequently W6 will save you so
Tvuoh on t he price of a wrap that you
will consider yourself fortunate in
being ab'e to buy a garment of this
kind. Think of buying a stylish long
garment, well made and of the best
material at. &0 cents on the dollar.
This we will do for you right now.
